Ah yes, its fun - go into store, get the things you want, then queue up to swap points for vouchers, then go and queue to pay with those vouchers.

We do not have to do that in our store.

Last time we took what we wanted to the desk, the SA told us how much we needed to exchange.She was very helpful as we wanted to use points from both our cards. She then did the exchanges and rang up our items on the till.

We got quite a few Toys for Christmas presents which were actually cheaper than anywhere else and with the double up were a real bargain.

here's the list of what is in (and what is out of) the double up promotion

I know the official rules state you can only get one voucher per category, but I know in recent years you've been able to get multiple if you either go to a) a different store or b) go back on a different day - the staff in store usually encouraged this too! I notice this year however, that my voucher says 'Only one Entertainment voucher per customer'. Has anybody had any experience of trying to get multiple vouchers in the same category so far this year?

I wanted to exchange my points on Tu Clothing. I asked for £20 in vouchers and they gave me 2 x £10. The shop assistant said it was more beneficial but I didn't ask why.....

After grabbing an 'entertainment' voucher to the value of £40 from my usual store on Monday, I then returned on Tuesday evening to the same store to get another 'entertainment' voucher for £40. Customer Services didn't ask any questions - they just gave me the second voucher without any quibble (it was a different operator each time - perhaps they might have recognised me had it been the same!).

Today I went to the same store at 8am and purchased a game using the first voucher. I've now just returned from the same store having spent the second voucher with no problem whatsoever. It seems the 'one voucher per customer' rule only applies to the same transaction, as it always did in previous years.

I'm going to try and obtain (and spend) a third entertainment voucher this evening on my way home. Whilst I was initially worried that they'd clamped down on this, I can't see this being a problem given what I've already managed to do!

You won't be able to use them both in the same transaction.
You will have to use them on separate shops.

No problem with 2 wine vouchers.
BUT only 1 per batch of shopping.
So split your shop into different transactions to make full use of the coupon.
Hth.

Very Happy with the double up.

Got a soundbar.

Really pleased with it.

I bought a couple of bottles of nice wine (Chateauneuf du Pape) for Christmas lunch, and a PS4 VR game for Mister CJ's Christmas stocking using the double up vouchers, and I've still got enough nectar points to get two magazine subscriptions. Very pleased with that.
